Kermit's froghood baffles me, mainly due to the neck frill. I was down a Muppet history rabbit hole recently and realized that he was originally just named "Kermit", and didn't become "Kermit the Frog" for some years. So he was probably designed as a frill-necked lizard of some kind and got retconned into a frog. Mystery solved, right? Well no, because then I realized he got the frill the same time they started calling him a frog.
I was so distraught I turned to Muppet Wiki, which it turns out has an entire section on his collar. It's an article of clothing. ๐
Clothing?? Why would he wear only one piece of clothing, barely covering his frog body, in the same color as his skin?
